Answer 1

My answer from a year ago (it didn't get any votes though, so you may prefer the answer in the thread that got votes):

http://www.spanishdict.com/answers/262453/alli-vs-alla

This is my understanding:

This is a lesson on Using 'Aquí,' 'Ahí' and 'Allí' (this distinction you probably already know)

http://spanish.about.com/od/adverbs/a/here_there.htm

"Allá" is similar to "allí", but less precise. It refers to a non specified place far from the speaker.

Somewhere way off, or somewhere way over there. Distant and a little vague.

There are probably times you could use either, but also times where one or the other works best.

I had forgotten about alla (sorry, can't always get the accent on my phone depends on predictive text working for each language) I use all the others !:) - FELIZ77, May 12, 2015

I mean, for each keyboard language layout - FELIZ77, May 12, 2015

I am amazed continuously by how many languages you are trying to learn. Well beyond my abilities. :) - bosquederoble, May 12, 2015
